Nightmares

by kittykat0232   Feb 26, 2010


I wake up every night, sweat running down my head,
Nothing to remember except the nightmare I just had,
I can't go back to sleep as the images are still in mind,
Everything I do, it all feels left behind

I watch the sun rise every morning,
With its rising a new chance at a new beginning,
Yet every night the nightmares come back,
And every night I feel the pain

Why do they haunt me?
I do not understand,
Everything was fine until I started getting them

I barely sleep,
I can barely breathe,
The slightest things are beginning to annoy me,
Nightmares of things I never want to see

Being chased by shadows that crawl the in-between,
It's not something I want to be in,
I awake as they're about to strike,
And I awake with no might...

Shadows full of evil,
Shadows full of sadness,
Shadows that in the end...
Will be nothing but shadows...
Yet I can't help to fear them in these nightmares...
